ibe-win32 - a Win32 port of the Stanford IBE library
Introduction
This is a collection of the files that I modified in order to get the Stanford IBE library version 0.7.2 to compile on Windows 32 with the MSVC++ development tools. Please note that IBE depends on the OpenSSL library and on the GMP library. I have only tested it on a Windows XP machine.
Compilation and installation
In order to compile the Stanford IBE library for Windows 32 you need first to install the OpenSSL library and my Windows port of the GMP library.
After you have compiled and installed the above required libraries, copy the
files provided here to the distribution directory of IBE 0.7.2 and overwrite
the existing files there, then simply enter the directory and type nmake.
You probably need to change the include directories in the Makefile, unless
you use the directory structure that I do. There is no installation required,
just put byte_string.h
, curve.h
, fp2.h
and ibe_lib.h
to your include
path and ibe.lib
to your library path. When you are using it in MSVC++ to
compile new programs don't forget to define _NTRG_WIN32_
, include ibe_lib.h
and link against all the required libraries.
In the directory bin/
you can find a pre-compiled version.
